Details

This review intends to:

1. Examine the role of leadership at all levels of an organisation in understanding, developing and sustaining a commitment to the Principles of Public Life;

2. Identify examples of how the Principles of Public Life are upheld in public sector organisations and how obstacles have been overcome on the path to implementing good practice;

3. Identify the characteristics of organisations that facilitate public office holders acting in line with the Principles of Public Life;

4. Consider whether there are mechanisms and practices used for embedding principles in the private and third sectors that can usefully be applied in the public sector, and by companies and charities providing services paid for by the taxpayer.
